I. pallida - absolutely indestructible and lovely blooms to boot
Babbling Brook - consistent, as always (Y. Berra)
Royal Touch - tough time with rot, few blooms
Snow Cloud - won't quite die, but also just barely blooms
Samurai Warrior - getting an early start this year
Broadway - first bloom we've had
Stellar Lights - great grower
Copper Classic - interesting, also at least 3 weeks early
Night Edition - a single bloom, guess the timer is off
Orange Celebrity - every clump with a bloom
Queen in Calico - first time for this one
Divine - very healthy and vigorous
Navajo Jewel - foliage at least 3 feet tall!
Victoria Falls - I can't seem to kill it, and neither can my customers
Twist of Fate - despite the bad press, ToF has done fine by me, but
seems especially susceptible to rot
Can't wait for more news of bloom from the list.
